The question should be why the ONE ACC vs SEC matchup that has both teams ranked is placed on the SECN. Last I checked....the ACC isn't located in just the South. I guess they think that only the ACC South matters?

Perhaps it's ESPN's and the SEC's way to encourage more interest in the SECN?

Btw, I get the SECN up here in the NYC metro area. So I enjoyed watching it.

Better than watching my Orange lose again.

Well of course it is. It is interesting that you guys get the SECN. I am curious, is it extended basic tier along with the ESPN's or is it the extended sports package above and beyond extended basic?

It's part of my extended HD package, just like the BTN is, which also includes besides the ESPN stations, MSGHD, MSG2HD, SNYHD, FOX Sports1 HD and a few others. PTN I would have to pay extra for if I wanted it.

Cheers,
Neil

Did not know that all the way over here in Arizona. Guess that basically makes the SECN just another ESPN channel for you guys.

Kentucky and South Carolina were road games. You can't put non-conference road games on a conference network. Georgia was at home so that game pretty much had to be the choice to go on the SEC Network.

Once again....these games aren't all scheduled in advanced in terms of kick off times. All that is scheduled that far in advance is who plays whom. Kick off times are figured during the season.

Kick off times had nothing to do with GT-UGa ending up on the SEC network. Home and away dictated the decision.
